FAQs
Can I use this on delicate fabrics like silk?
It is recommended to use caution on delicate materials. Use the vacuum mode only and avoid high-intensity agitation if the fabric is fragile.
How often should I clean the filters?
For optimal performance, inspect the filters after every 3-4 uses. Clean them immediately if you notice a decrease in suction.
Does the UV light kill all bacteria?
The UV light is designed to assist in sanitization by targeting dust mites and allergens, but it should not be considered a medical-grade sterilizer.
Is the bin dishwasher safe?
No, the bin should be cleaned by hand with a dry or slightly damp cloth to prevent damage to the sensor components.
Can this be used on pet beds?
Yes, it is excellent for pet beds as the agitator effectively lifts embedded pet hair and dander.
Troubleshooting
The vacuum has lost suction power
Check the 0.6L bin and the cyclone filter for blockages. Empty the bin and ensure the filter is free of compacted dust.
The UV light does not turn on
Ensure the device is firmly pressed against the surface. Many models have safety sensors that disable the UV light if the device is lifted off the surface.
The agitator brush stops rotating
Unplug the device and check the brush roll for hair or string tangles that might be obstructing the motorized mechanism.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is straightforward: ensure the dust bin is securely clicked into place and plug the device into a standard wall outlet. No assembly is required out of the box.
Compatibility: This device is designed for soft furnishings. Do not use it on gravel, large debris, or wet surfaces to prevent damage to the internal motor or the UV lamp housing.
Care Instructions:
- Bin Maintenance: Empty the 0.6L bin after every use to prevent odor buildup.
- Filter Care: Periodically check the cyclone filter. If suction drops, remove the filter and gently tap out excess dust or rinse if the manual permits (ensure it is 100% dry before reinserting).
- UV Lamp: Keep the UV glass area clean and free of smears to ensure maximum light output during operation.
